pendulum clock by Woka 1915 [architonic.com]

For example, these two clocks by Adolph Loos (1870 – 1933) at the Neue Galerie in New York. Loos was an architect who also designed furniture and all sorts of objects. The tall clock is smallish grandfather-size, the other for tabletop or mantel. Both are pendulum models with brass and glass cases, handsome faces, visible works, and lots of space inside. Spacious, gracious, taut.
